My first canning project...
I'm so excited. Today I didn't start off well today. I was feeling down and depressed. Nearly at tears every once in a while. I'm not sure why. Just so many negative thoughts crossing my mind. Anyway, in the last month, I've been intrigued at canning. I would love to grow my own vegetables but it's not in the cards right now till we have a house we own. So I went in search of tomatoes for my first project. Canning crushed tomatoes. I bought about 20 lbs of roma tomatoes and basically spent the rest of my afternoon preparing, cooking and canning tomatoes. I made 5 jars and here is a pic of them below. I have 3 more in the canner and should be ready soon to remove. I was careful to follow a lab tested recipe from Ball so it would be safe to consume with risk. I was torn between working on my affiliate business, cleaning or canning. Since it will be next to impossible to do this with G around, I decided to do the canning. I've always wanted to try it and we'll see how it comes out. So far so good. I have another recipe I want to try next and it's still waterbath canning.
